Shia LaBeouf goes hard. He doesn’t know the meaning of light preparation or minimal effort. If he commits to something, he’ll go over and above to make it happen.

And if he needs to play a soldier in a realistic, gritty film, he’s going to dive into the deep end.

Brad Pitt's Fury Now Opening Much Earlier Than Expected

As such, Ayer is also fighting against certain perceptions of war films. He's sidestepped this issue by avoiding the framing of World War II in a historical context, as Fury takes place primarily on a single day.

9 Ways Fury Aims To Be The Muddiest, Most Realistic World War II Movie Ever Made

Anyone who's seen Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds knows that Brad Pitt contributes to a huge portion of that film's success. His casting was probably the most brilliant move on that film besides the casting of his co-star Christoph Waltz, and he's looking to tear down the Nazis yet again in his new film, Fury. And this time, he's not scalping his way through enemy territory, he's shelling them into submission!

And while special care is taken to make sure nobody gets hurt, every once in a while somebody is going to take a knife to the body (or a camera crane to the head, as was the case for Baz Luhrmann on the set of The Great Gatsby.

Stuntman Stabbed In Accident On The Set Of David Ayer's Fury

Is Brad Pitt going to become the next actor, after Tom Hanks, to become completely synonymous with World War II? He's already put in one memorable performance on the war-torn European front, as the scalp-wielding Lt. Aldo Raine in Inglourious Basterds, and he's currently making his way back in Fury, another Word War II drama currently shooting in London. We thought the crew joining Pitt was already set in place

Brad Pitt is heading back to World War II on behalf of David Ayer's Fury, and now he's got a young whippersnapper to go along with him. Though you'd think he'd never agree to play a sidekick again after Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Shia LaBeouf has signed on to join Pitt in Fury, playing a member of the five-man crew who pilot a Sherman tank behind enemy lines during the last days of World War II
